Effective December 31, 2013, Michael Hess resigned as the Chief Financial Officer of LKA Gold Incorporated. Until a new CFO is appointed by the Board of Directors, duties associated with that office will be performed on an interim basis by Nanette Abraham, who served in this capacity for approximately 10 years prior to Mr. Hess's appointment in August of 2013. Mr. Hess will resume his previous duties as LKA's audit control and accounting supervisor, a position he previously held with the Company since 2008.
